Best of friends.

When's the last time you've seen clothing made in the #USA? #Fastfashion focuses on mass production and profit. And it is everywhere! Thrifting is one way to reduce waste and give perfectly good clothing a second life and home. But, there's another part to that. Thrifting fast fashion is an oxymoron. One should shop secondhand intentionally for quality items at a knockout price. I started my page @thriftedbykrystal in an effort to do just that. Some of my current listings now are my #poshmark closet cleanouts, but moving foward, my goal is to shop consciously and bring those deals to you. Vintage, quality, and smart. Check out my page and share with your friends!

In middle school, I begged my parents to let me go modeling/acting school. They finally broke down and sent me to a school that let me "train to be a model or just look like one." I swayed more towards the latter. . . During one weekend session, about halfway through my "training," if one can even truly call it that, we were instructed to bring in a weekly foodlog and exercise clothes. I was in 8th grade. I ate a bagel and cream cheese everyday for lunch because it was $1.25 and I could pocket the rest of my lunch money. The only exercise clothes I owned were soccer shorts and shirts. As if being 13 wasn't already awkward enough. . . It was during this session I was weighed, measured, told to never wear pink again and to stop eating carbs. A group of 20 or so of us gathered in classroom around a small 10" technicolor TV and did about 15 minutes of Jane Fonda aerobics and called it exercise. Before this day, I never really thought about diets or dieting. I was a kid for goodness sake. . . Over the years, I've battled with what I understood about diet during my formative years while reconciling it with what I know today. Quite frankly, I think many of us still are. . . We are still stuck on what we read in #Seventeen Magazine moons ago or we're still following #Oprah's "don't eat after 8 " routine. #Dietculture is so insidious. Diet is derived from Greek diaita, meaning "a way of life." It should further emphasize, your way of life. Your nourishment and sustainence. Your pleasures. Your indulgences. No rulebooks, NO GUILT. . . If your diet has rules or GUILT (you're in a CULT, call your dad). Jk. You're in diet CULTure. Where diet culture restricts, intuitive eating honors your health with nutrition. Let's make 2019 the year we learn to make peace with food and challenge diet culture. . . Oh, and I still wear pink. . . #movingwrightalong #diversifydietetics #dieteticintern #rd #rd2be #HAES #intuitiveeating #diet #dietculture #guilt #eating #food #ssdgm #honoryourhunger

Hustlin' n' bustlin' n' jinglin' all the way. No holiday is complete without homemade party mix. It tastes even better with these cute little holiday pretzels from @aldiusa. 😍🍭🎄

Nathanael, there were days you ran around the house wearing a makeshift Batman cape. You watched "Top Dog" over and over and exclaimed "damn dog!" on cue with your buddy Chuck Norris. It's hard to believe this little brother of mine is now 18. A young man. You have aspirations and you are an inspiration to many, including myself. While the next few months may be challenging, the road forward is much brighter than the past. 18 years of laughter, memories, tears, celebrations and YOU! Happy Birthday Natty Nat! Love you!

Spent some time with some of my favorite lil bits over Thanksgiving.

Don't be fooled. He's cheesin' because he caught a Pokémon. #kdubya2kdub
